(CS) In the early hours of Saturday morning four cars caught fire in Luxembourg City and Esch/Alzette, with police appealing for witnesses.

Between 3am and 4am one car was ablaze in Allée du Carmel in Luxembourg City, and three cars caught fire on a parking lot in Esch/Alzette. Police assume that the flames spread from one car to two other standing next to it.

The cause of the fires is not yet known; however, arson is not ruled out and the prosecution has ordered the criminal investigation department to secure evidence at both sites.
